Now one more thing to add about students, safety before we start today’s college tour. The university offers two programs called Safe Walk and College Alone programs. The Safe Walk program is to make sure that students get where they need to go late at night with officer on duty to safe guard them, whether back from the bar or from a late night study-group. The College Alone program gives students who are working alone at night peace of mind. Once a student calls the office, her position is recorded as is her time to leave the place and where she is about to go. Students are provided with a number they can call Campus Safety Office 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And 12 college pay phones are also connected to the office, no money needed. Here we're trying our best, so that your children are safe when attending the university.
在今天我们开始大学之旅之前，我还有一件事儿要对学生们说。学校给我们提供了两项计划，Safe Walk 和College Alone。Safe Walk 计划是为了确保学生们可以晚上去他们想要去的地方，无论是从酒吧还是晚间学习小组回来，都有执勤工作人员保卫他们。College Alone计划是为那些晚上独自学习的学生提供安宁的环境。一旦有学生给办公室打电话，她的位置所在、离开的时间以及所要去的地方都会被记录下来。学生会得到一个电话号，可以随时给学校治安办公室打电话。而且学校内12个投币式公用电话无需投币也都会接到办公室。在此我们将尽全力来保证您的孩子在学校的安全。
